Dan...you've executed that beautifully!
Wow,honestly brother,I think I need a cold shower...that's one very sexy knife!
Rustic hammer-forged finishes do it for me like no other, and you nailed it.

Have you ever done a coffin-handle like that ?

 

[jameswood]

very nice!
i like the way you've left/put the forge finish on the spine.

 

[James Terrio]

That's very nice indeed. The forge-finish is cool, of course. I'm impressed with the quality of the satin finish on the flats, too, you don't always see that on 3V. Did you do a lot of that before HT?

 

[opiy]

Now that is impressive. I really like the forged look. I like it! :35:

 

[Dan Keffeler]

Wow thanks for the kind words.

I take it to 400grit before Ht.
I work allot of 3V and M4 in my knives and swords. so I have developed a good system for finishing these steals.

Looks like your system is working I have some 3V but haven't used any of it yet. I'd love to hear your tips and tricks for working with it.
